A communique said Ft in the Nevrokopi highlands, had fallen to the Germans and immediately had been retaken by the Greeks. Only the British Air Force was in position to aid the Greeks holding out in the forts, under the supervision of the late Premier Gen. Metaxas to defend the strip of territory won from Bulgaria 23 years ago. The British bombed and strafed the German columns but could not halt them. Most troops and civilians been evacuated from the gered strip in accordance with secondary defense plan worked long ago Most of when the Jugoslav south Serbia.

SCHOOL SALARY PLEA IS STUDIED
Teachers Seek Return to Level in Effect Before Depression.
By EARL HOFF School Board and tax officials today considered a proposal to increase teachers’ salaries, placing them on a definite written schedule that would boost salary costs to the City approximately $170,000. The proposal was advanced by | the Federation of Indianapolis Pub- | lic School Teachers before the | Board yesterday. It carried with it | the backing of the 12th District, | American Legion, the Indianapolis Council of Parents and Teachers, | the American Association of Uni- | versity Women, the Indianapolis Council of Women and the West | Side Businessmen's Club. | The Indianapolis Chamber of | Commerce, the Indiana Tax Pay- | ers’ Association and the Office! Building Association, said they had | made no decision on the matter but viewed it “sympathetically.”
Presented Annually
The proposal, presented annually | since the depression vear of 1931 forced the School Board to cut sal- |
’
3 aries and remove the 1927 schedule |
from teachers’ contracts, was of - | fered by Miss Mary Ronk, School 86 | teacher who is chairman of the | Federation's Salary Committee. The seven-point teachers’ program | urges: 1. That the present unwritten | scale be adopted as the basic schedule for salaries and that each eligible teacher be granted one increase in 1942, 2. That $2200 be the maximum salary for all non-degree teachers! with the exception of those qualiiy- | ing under the Smith-Hughes Act. 3. That the allowance for outside | teaching experience be limited to not exceed 10 years. | 4. That two years of industrial ex- | perience be considered the equiva- | lent of one year of teaching experi- | ence, the total not to exceed eight | years’ industrial experience. | 5. That all teachers five steps be-! low their placement on the present | salary schedule receive an additional | increase in 1942, providing it does! not carry them beyond their maxi-| mum salary level on the scale. 6. That any teacher holding a regular contract and whose 1941 salary is below $1250 be raised to at least that level on the scale. (There are 44 below the level.) | 7. That the 20-day sick leave with pay adopted in 1940 be reaffirmed.
Sets Maximum |
The Federation plan would pro-| vide a maximum salary of $3000) annually for teachers with master’s degrees after 24 years’ service. The] peak for teachers with bachelor's degrees would be $2650. Miss Ronk said that the schedule | would offer teachers security, in-| centive for additional training and would compensate for ‘larger sal-| ary returns teachers might be able to secure competitively in other] fields.” The defense program in Indianapolis, she pointed out, “will create

He asserted that teachers’ pay is based upon "a depression level of experience.” The Indianapolis tax rate of 96 cents, which includes 7 cents for libraries, is very low and 40 to 50 cents could be added to it “and it still would not be out of line,” he said. He told the Board that there were only four or five cities of the size of Indianapolis with lower rates. He also asserted that salary reductions of 1931-32 were not authorized by the Legislature and the School City “might have a legal obligation of $800,000 to $1,000,000";

head, said: “We get just what we pay for, and if we are to continue to get the best for our boys and girls, then the teachers should have the best possible.” The P.-T. A. group, she said, heartily approved the salary increases. Mrs. H. Taylor Todd, representing the A. A. U. W,, said her group felt that teachers should have a salary schedule, but believed that it should still carry some sort of a merit basis so that increases would not be automatic with no regard to qualifications. In reply, E. B. Hargrave, Federation president, asserted that the proposal would include a clause allowing the School Board to deny an annual raise to a teacher that did not measure up to standard. Mrs. Clayton H. Ridge of the Indianapolis Council of Women said her group saw “both sides of the question.” They believed that teachers should have better incomes, she said, but at the same time the Council realized that people were “more than ever tax conscious.”
